wow, was great to find this site and already passed it onto my friend. I have put weight on since stopping smoking but also turned to the good old friend wine to replace the cigarettes and to cope with my mothers passing. so here i am two stone over weight and feeling miserable, so have a drink, viscious circle really. got off my sorry for myself butt today and went to the gym and had fun through the pain. im running tom and have a sponsored walk up snowdon mountain in august to aim for and do not intend being fat for that, it would be like a skinny person carrying a toddler, ouch, so im glad to be on here and have support to achieve my goal..thanks.x
